EITHNE
Meaning:*
This name means “kernel of a nut or seed,” but it may also be related to Aidan, meaning “little fire.” There are at least nine St. Eithne’s. One 6th-century St. Eithne was the mother of St. Columba. Before the birth of her son, an angel appeared to her, displaying a beautifully colored cloak covered with beautiful flowers. When she reached for the mantle, it rose into the air, and spreading out, floated over land and sea until it seemed to rest upon the hills of a distant land. This vision foretold that her little son was to travel over the waters and win high distinction and honor.

Chakra "Pineal Gland"

The Pineal Gland is about the size of a pea, and is in the center of the brain in a tiny cave behind and above the pituitary gland which lies a little behind the root of the nose. It is located directly behind the eyes, attached to the third ventricle. This chakra is also known as the upper dan tien. The ninth chakra is an interesting chakra in that it is in this chakra that all the Christ abilities lie dormant, waiting to be released and used in the outer and inner worlds. The shift in focus at this time is toward that Christ energy and the accompanying abilities that go along with it. Hence, a great deal of work and energy is now being sent into physical reality to help the individual open up and expand this energy center.
